FIRE at Island Recycling, Inc.

On July 4, 2015, there was a huge fire  at Island Recycling Inc., Campbell Industrial Park.  The fire started  during the early morning hours of 7/4/15, and may take several days to put out.  The fire is burning in a mountain of junk with billowing clouds of black smoke.   Some of the smoke, from burning oil, gasoline, and chemicals reached as far as the Nanakuli area.   We were there all a day, but did not see the EPA or State Heaoth Department on scene to monitor for air quality, runoff, or other environmental concerns this fire presented.  

This was not the first fire at Island Recycling, Inc.     On 5/1/04 there was a fire at Island Recycling's Sand Island Facility.  Link here to that story.    On 12/23/03 Carroll wrote a letter to the Department of Planning and Permitting regarding conditions at  Island Recycling, Inc.  Link here to letter.
